Hi,
Thanks for reply.
Problem is not creating another DB.
I am able to create the DB.But my problem is how to startup the 2 DB's.
Let me make clear what i am doing.(one DB is running already)
1) i have created new DB
2) give STARTUP pfile c:\.....path of init.ora file in SVRMGRL prompt.
3) i am getting error "Oracle already running.Shut it down first"
I think i have to do parallel server/multi instance configuration.
I dont know how to do it.I am doing this in oracle8i/win2k.I would like to know the procedure for 8i/9i on linux/win2k.
Please help me.
Thanking you
